What's New in Version 2.3

We don’t often release updates, but when we do…

• Wacom ICS 2 supportWe’re thrilled to finally announce that the Wacom Intuos Creative Stylus 2 is now supported in Procreate! Wacom have been working seriously hard on significant SDK improvements specifically for Procreate compatibility. Together, we’ve been able to bring support to Procreate 2.3 on any device from iPad 2 to iPad Air. iPad Air 2 users can still connect and use all the features of the ICS 2, but the stylus will remain officially unsupported on that iPad model.

• Light InterfaceThe trademark dark Procreate interface has always made working indoors a pleasure. The problem was as soon as you ventured outside into the sunlight to get creative, the interface kind of melded into a big murky pool of dark mush.

With Procreate 2.3, you can just flick a switch and the entire interface will transition into beautiful and completely new Light interface, made specifically for working in bright conditions. It’s kind of like sunglasses for Procreate. Except not dark. And nothing like sunglasses. But trust us; painting outdoors is now pretty cool.

• Fixed the annoying color bugApparently if you had a menu open, and you attempted to open colors, you could open the color menu and pick a color but the color you chose wouldn’t actually be the color you saved. Confused? So were we! But what’s important is that we crushed this confusing and annoying bug with furious anger and mighty vengeance.

• Refined UI itemsWe’ve included a few small but nice interface refinements for you to discover. We hope you like them.

• Turn Palm Support™ offPalm Support, while awesome, was occasionally less awesome than it should have been for some people some of the time. For those people, you can now completely turn Palm Support off in your iPad’s Settings app. If you’re a new Procreate customer and you’d like to see how Palm Support can work for you, you can turn it on in Settings app any time you like.

• Stability improvements and bug fixesDon’t let the mundane “Bug Fixes” thing throw you off. We’ve spent a whole lot of time crushing literally hundreds of bugs, quirks, glitches and random events. Here’s some of the fixes you have been waiting for:

Wacom Intuos Creative Stylus 2

by
MickG25

Update: I forgot to mention that I am using an iPad Air 2. It WOULD be my luck that I have the only model device that isn't officially supported. Ok, gonna get right to it. This is the best drawing/painting app out there hands down. 4 stars instead of 5 because the lack of support for my Intuos Creative Stylus 2. The most recent update claimed that FINALLY Procreate has added support for this stylus. It is with the exception that it is recognized as an unsupported stylus but also claims the user will have use of all the functions of the stylus and software. I suppose I have use, but the use is poor. The pressures are a bit off but even more importantly it's responsiveness is poor and it rarely works with the UI buttons. The markings seen are a whole 1/8 inch from the actual marks made on the canvas in every direction. I hate to say it but I have better results with a cheap foam tip stylus that I paid 3 bucks for, haha. Please, please, fix this as soon as you guys can. I spent so much money on this stylus just so I can use it with Procreate. Not to mention I also bought Procreate just so I had the best software to go with the best stylus. I cannot wait to be able to use these two together in seamless harmony. Thank you and keep up the good work!

FUN Fabulous Tools!

I'm an old-school artist who's just getting the hang of digital drawing. The tools function and produce line as they should, so this app is exceptional in that alone. Definitely worth the price. The only issues I'm encountering are some lag and the occasional crash, but my work has always been saved when reopening the app.The lag in response comes after selecting a new tool, color, etc. I found that if I just wait a few seconds before drawing again, the system catches up and is less likely to crash. I'm running it on an iPad 2.

UPDATE:Having a blast with this app! I've had a few days to really dig into it, and it's quite outstanding!

Would like to see some changes to the left-handed interface, where more than just the brush size and opacity controls switch sides. I frequently end up switching back to the right-hand interface, because having those controls near the color picker and layer panel is more efficient. A horizontal flip of the entire top bar would be awesome, with the picker in the left corner and gallery far right.

Keep tweaking this app... you guys ROCK!

Even with bugs, its still 5 Stars!

I've had Procreate for a while now, I think ever since I got the Wacom Intuous Creative Stylus 1. Since then, I've never found an app that even comes close to it. Maya, Adobe, Paper... These are all "nice" apps but none of these made me feel like an artist.

For some reason, maybe even just aesthetically, Procreate is made for artists. The feel, the features, and the tools are all made with the artist in mind. Its like, all the other apps would just let you draw, but for this app, you create; ideas, concepts... works of ART!

If you are an artist that is looking for the most seamless transition from the usual pen and paper to digital art, Procreate is right for you.
